Costa Sur Resort & Spa
The whole complex is tired and upkeep is not a priority. It is not a wheel chair accessible property as it is advertised. Uninterrupted Wifi and TV is none existent. Have stayed at better properties for a third of the price less. None regulated kitchen furnishings and had to ask for too many items ...
